Well done again for another amazing day of learning in years 5&6! We are so proud of you all! I have seen some amazing reflections today in all classes within the phase and some great examples of engaging in our protocols!
Today’s postcard winners are:
Zara & Layla- for awesome engagement during maths
Johno & Jenson- for great perseverance in Expedition and working out which mines had been open the longest in Doncaster
Marley- for some great contributions when using our popcorn protocol
Nishal- for some excellent reflecting at the end of his lessons
Nellie, for always smiling and trying her best to achieve her ME’s
Today in Expedition, we have been looking at how many mining collieries there were in Doncaster and when they opened/closed. Many children were shocked to find that Hatfield main only closed in 2015! The children had lots of questions when presented with the data such as why were so many mines opened in 1911 and why some mines were combined- you can see more questions on our Jamboard above The children then went to find out which mine had been opened for the shortest period of time in Doncaster.
Ask your children which were the longest and shortest standing mines in Doncaster!

At the end of another busy week I would just like to say a few ‘thank yous’.
Firstly, to the tireless staff in Year 3/4, who have been working so hard to plan and deliver lessons online and in person, to support children emotionally and academically, to make phone calls and ensure everyone is safe and well and to guarantee that our expedition continues to capture the children’s imagination.
Secondly, to all you lovely supportive parents – we know many of you are juggling the roles of parent, teacher and worker all from home, trying to sort out IT problems and encourage children to learn, even when they are reluctant.
And finally, to the the children of year 3 and 4 who continue to brighten our days both in person and online. It has been a real pleasure seeing how much enthusiasm they have had for their learning and the positive attitudes they have had. They have been supportive of each other and resilient to the difficulties of trying to learn when videos keep buffering or they can’t write on a document.
Well done guys, it is a real team effort and through these challenges we will grow stronger.
From a very proud Phase Leader

It has been a great week of learning for so many of our children in year 3 and 4. So many children have been logging on and completing their work, it is great to see.
I have been particularly impressed with the artwork that has been produced during the Thursday afternoon art sessions with Mrs Foster.
They have been learning about the Japanese artwork ‘the Great Wave’ by Hokusai, to link with our expedition theme of Natural Disasters and today’s lesson moved on to using a tsunami as a subject to study using perspective in their drawings.
I am blown away by the quality of the drawing and the care and pride they have put into their work.
Have a flick through our gallery below (swipe left and right) and who knows, one day, some these pupils might be displaying in real art galleries!
Enjoy our art!
